Needless to say (well, at least I thought it was), opining on the quality of a race while citing the 11th, 12th, 13th, and 14th placers is never a good spot to start. The field wasn't strong because of who Variety Club beat by anywhere from 11.25 to 30 lengths?

Keep up with that one...and you are welcome in the parimutuel pools anytime.

I didn't mention them because of where they finished though... I mentioned them because they're some of the top rated horses in hk, aren't they? Some of those poor old guys whose best days were so long ago?

Doesn't it show how meaningless all of these alleged rankings are?

I just don't think it took a special horse for that win... that was the point I was trying to make.

No little number needed before of after Wise Dan's name thank you. I think he will beat whoever he runs against period.

Oh... Indian Charlie loved your post incase you wondered.

I'd give you a little gold star if I could.

Or a thobe or a gutra or something.
